Re: am i spoiling him?

My daughter started sleeping on my chest while we were still in the hospital. It was the only way I could get any sleep. She will be 7 weeks old Sunday and has spent every night of the past 7 weeks sleeping on my chest.

Re: am i spoiling him?

Logan loves to sleep on my chest! The first times he did it was the first time we got sleep after the hospital. He keeps me warm that way and I love it. I also love to see how strong he is already because he lifts his head up to look around..... only 2 weeks old and my baby is a rubber necker, lol.

Re: am i spoiling him?

My 7 wo has been sleeping on or very near to me every night since she's been born. I'm an incredibly light and motionless sleeper so it doesn't concern me as far as injuring her. And it makes me feel much better to know that so many others are doing the exact same thing!! When I put DD in her crib, it seems to swallow her up because she's still so small, and it seems so lonely to me to put her in there! And I love that closeness (and convenience) of having her right with me!!

Re: am i spoiling him?

I love holding my little one as she sleeps! My mother-in-law just LOVES that she likes to fall asleep this way, my DH nor his sister would ever fall asleep in her arms. So, having a granddaughter that prefers this just tickles her to death!

Enjoy every moment of it!
